Max connection is usually used when the user needs
to receive data from different hosts simultaneously.
The factory default is 1. In this case, only one
specific host can access this port of the NPort 6000
series device server, and the Real COM driver on that
host will have full control over the port.
Max. connection 1:
Allows only a single host…s Real COM driver to open
the specific NPort 6000 series device server…s
serial port.
Max connection 2 to 8:
Allows 2 to 8 hosts… Real COM drivers to open the
specific NPort 6000 series device server…s serial
port, at the same time. When multiple hosts… Real
COM drivers open the serial port at the same time,
the COM driver only provides a pure data tunnel
without control ability. The serial port parameter
will use the firmware settings instead of depending
on your application program (AP).
